Title: Harry Potter and the Enemy Within and Harry Potter and the Chained Souls
Author: Theowyn of HPG
Word Count: two novels, part one and part two
Rating: both are T
Pairings: none
Summary of Enemy Within: In his sixth year at Hogwarts, Harry's mental link to Voldemort is stronger than ever. Can Snape teach him to control the nightmarish visions? And is their connection the key to ending Voldemort's reign?
Summary of Chained Souls: Harry must discover how Voldemort cheated death. He faces Death Eaters, shadowy Ministry officials & suspicions that threaten to tear his own allies apart. But the answers lie in the mind where victory can only be won by freeing the chained souls. SEQUEL
Theowyn wrote Harry Potter and the Enemy Within prior to HBP, and then wrote and completed the sequel, Harry Potter and the Chained Souls, just before DH came out. The two stories are primarily concerning Harry and Snape, with Snape in a mentoring role. But there's also a great deal about Snape's background (which is almost exactly as we learned in HBP and DH), his inner motivations, etc. What I especially love about these stories is that Theowyn works out the overall Harry-defeats-Voldemort situation in a way that could almost have been planned by JKR if JKR had done a better job with DH, and of course, Harry's defeat of Voldemort is integrally linked to Snape's past and his motivations.
These are, in my opinion, two of the most well written stories in HP fandom. There's little to no romance, and very little "fluff", and Snape never goes soft or ever particularly mellow. But Harry gradually learns to respect him and mutual caring gradually develops. Harry and Snape are very much in character throughout, and Dumbledore is what many wish he had been. Many other supporting characters as well, all equally well written. And the suspense is excellent! Especially at the end.
